Sirrus and Achenar's Prison Books, Spire and Haven, were also located in the library. In-game, only the journals for the Channelwood, Stoneship, Selenitic, Mechanical and Rime (in RealMyst) Ages remain intact, along with a Pattern book used to access the D'ni linking book in the fireplace. In it, Atrus stored journals and the Linking Books for all the Ages he had visited, many of which were destroyed by Sirrus and Achenar in an attempt to cover up the crimes they committed in many of them. The library is a key location on Myst Island. There is also a miniature model of the ship inside of a small pool in front of the library.
On the ship, there is a Linking Book leading to the Stoneship Age, an Age written by Atrus to test the power of the art, by writing in a man-made object to an already-existing Age. However, by solving the puzzle of the poles and symbols in front of the Myst Library, he/she could raise the ship from the depths. When the Stranger first saw the ship on Myst, it appeared to be sunken, and could not be accessed.
It is an almost exact replica of the ship that can be found on the Stoneship age, which was written by Atrus. The ship on Myst Island is more or less the first thing a person sees when linking in to Myst. However, in Myst, it can only go up, and an ability to go down has not been found in any other games. It has been said though, that the real living quarters of Catherine and Atrus can be accessed by the elevator going down. One discontinuity between the story and the game is the absence of living quarters. Myst also possesses a natural cave, which houses the power generators. Although it is entirely surrounded by water, there is no beach, only rocky coastline. The island is partially flat forest land, with a large rocky hill toward one end. Myst consists mainly of one large island, with a small sister island on which sits the clock tower. All mechanisms on the Age have been rendered functionless by time and weather. Myst, as seen in Myst V: End of Ages, eventually fell into decay after being unattended for 250 years. Years later, Yeesha returns to Myst island and closes the library forever. Catherine also visited Myst later, and brought Atrus the book of J'nanin to help him. Įventually Atrus had to visit Myst again in order to explore his old Ages, seeking inspiration for the new Age he was writing to relocate the D'ni people. As a pretense to avoid the Island, Atrus occupied himself with writing Ages like Averone, then with searching the Ages of D'ni for survivors, postponing the visit to Myst. Atrus also felt partly responsible for them, as he did not reach out to the boys when he should.
In truth they were avoiding it, as its current condition caused them much anger and grief, being reminded of the betrayal, cruelty and greed of their sons. In the following 10 years after those events, Atrus and Catherine rarely returned to the island. Each of these safe places was protected by a puzzle that one would need to complete in order to access it.Įventually, after the events in Myst, Atrus left Myst island and returned to K'veer (with a linking book this time).Ītrus was trapped on K'veer and burned so many of his Books. While many were eventually destroyed by Achenar and Sirrus, he had created four "places of protection" where he kept four of his books. Atrus writes many ages while on the island (he claims over one hundred). (Ti'ana's death, as referred to in Myst IV: Revelation, however, took place on an age Catherine wrote). Therefore, When realMyst was released, the island was modified to contain Ti'ana's gravestone. While on the island, Atrus and Catherine had two sons, Achenar and Sirrus.Įventually, Ti'ana dies, and is buried by Atrus (the character of Ti'ana was not created when the original Myst game came out). There, he, Ti'ana, and Catherine lived together. Atrus had trapped Gehn in Riven and linked to Myst as the book fell into a fissure. Myst Island was an age created by Catherine and Ti'ana for Catherine and Atrus to live in to be safe from Gehn.
